Location & Accomodations

Although it sits less than an hour south of the city of Houston, Galveston's relaxed island attitude and unique culture give off the impression that you are a thousand miles away! Galveston captivates visitors that come to call with her natural beauty, eccentric charm, and traditional-style Texas hospitality. Galveston is the beautifully preserved hidden treasure of the Lone Star State.

Remnants of the civil war era are still visible throughout the Historic Strand District.Visitors only need to walk the streets of the Strand to fully appreciate how Galveston's rich history mingles perfectly with modern shops and restaurants. To this day, Galveston contains one of the largest and historically significant collections of 19th-century buildings in the United States. Many of these buildings survived the 1900 Storm which is regarded as the worst natural disaster in United States history. Galveston's architectural preservation and revitalization efforts over several decades have earned national recognition. Old mansions such as the Ashton Villa and Moody Mansion still line Broadway Street, while historic hotels dot the Seawall.

Galveston is home to some of the best attractions Texas has to offer, including Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn Galveston Island Waterpark, the Historic Pleasure Pier amusement park and a plethora of unique museums. With 32 miles of beaches, you cant come to Galveston and not enjoy some the many outdoor activities available including dolphin tours, birding tours and more.

For a taste of Galveston, visit the great restaurants along The Strand or on the waterfront. You'll find everything from Greek and Mexican to Italian and, of course, world famous, fresh Gulf Coast seafood.
